My mother always watched this movie on Easter Sunday. I am not religious, but in my opinion it is the best Jesus movie ever made. The flogging scene in particular always stuck out in my mind. The soldiers beating him always made me flinch.
I am not a deeply religious person.But…i always hope that after all this there is something awaiting for all of us.Something pure and good that will welcome good and bad in eternal safety love and forgiveness and that we all keep our consciousness so that we may conversate with what awaits us and gain wisdom and feel ashamed for our actions during our previous lives.And finally feel forgiven
Nicolás, si quieres experimentar lo vivo que está Jesús, solo hay una manera de comprobarlo, y la respuesta está en Evangelio de Juan capítulo 3: versículo 3… medita en éste versículo hasta que lo entiendas… y entonces Jesús será una realidad en tí, y todo lo que El alcanzó para tí por medio de Su muerte y Su resurrección…Dios te dé entendimiento y te bendiga abundantemente Nicolás.
The essence of heaven is that there will be no "bad". Evil can not stand in the presence of a Holy God. That is impossible. But through Jesus' perfect sacrifice our "bad" (and we are all bad to varying degrees) we can be covered by Jesus' perfect goodness. This is all explained in the Bible. I pray that you can seek and come to understand these truths and we will see you in heaven. Blessings!
Pilate would have pronounced it "ek-ke homo," not "etch-e homo" which is church Latin and anachronistic in the first century. But he really wouldn't have used Latin at all, because Greek was the language used by Roman officials in Palestine. Pilate would have said "Ἰδοὺ ὁ ἄνθρωπος."
The whole thing is so twistedly erotic. Its no wonder this story caught on. Any other religion that worships, above its very altars, the naked whipped and tortured male body? Its just very deeply weird. Roman and Greek religion was dignified, you can't imagine Buddha in this condition...
ivan kovacevic Of course I am completely aware. I know exactly. In previous centuries, women without dowries used to be sent t nunneries, where they didnt belong, and they transposed their sexual longings onto the figure of this naked man. Quite often they went mad..whole convents went mad.
***** This is kind of long...but you may be interested...Well, if you look at ancient Catholic churches you will see something...try the church of Maria-sopra-Minerva...Mary Over Minerva..built on a site that worshipped both Minerva and Isis...the female force. These ancient churches combined the male principle: the phallic steeple...with the female: the Rose window (petals of the vagina, the Mystic Rose...thats what it is)..and the doorways, which are believe it or not, shaped like the entrance to the vagina...then go inside...the ceilings are ribbed along the 'tunnel'...at the end, what takes place? The mystery of bloody birth. Dont forget, long ago, men revered and feared the female capacity to give life. And it was sacrifice: women sacrificed their lives, sometimes literally, but always giving up themselves, feeding with their blood and milk, giving birth in agony At the end of the tunnel, that's what you see: Mary, enthroned with the baby...and the baby as a man, giving his life to create life...male and female perfectly combined. Its so forceful...the true reverence and fear...this is the meaning of awe. Protestant churches abandoned the female principle and became literal, instead of mystic. And these churches did not nurture the people like the monasteries of the old faith. They blamed people for their own poverty and created workhouses and cold-hearted orphanages...and the Catholic church reacted by insisting their monks and nuns follow the impossible celibacy laws where they used to turn a blind eye...so abuses and cruelty entered their orphanages too. And their churches became ugly and plain and cold and utterly male, so that religion did not reach the mystical depth and connect people to the divine any longer...turned their attention to being part of an industrial machine that ate them up...and, well...thats a lot more to say!
***** Absolutely never heard of it but I will look into it. Only woman and water connection I know is the moon pulling the tides, woman associated to the moon due to the menstrual cycle

Religion doesn't get you into heaven. Trusting in Jesus and repentance does.
Pain beyond pain.
